Fixed Income and Variable Income


Explanation:
It's tricky because it's writtten weird.

I'd say fixed income b/c this includes bonds and certificates of deposit, etc.

I'd say variable income b/c this includes stocks, depositary receipts, and mutual funds, etc....

Seems better to be more inclusive, on the safe side, so to speak.

It's a little difficult because your description is cut of -- "son emisiones de deuda que..." ?? so we don't get to see the whole description of what type of fixed-income securities these are specifically referring to.

Fixed Income and Equities


Explanation:
These are more generic, since bonds are one type of fixed income security.

Fixed income securities - Definition

Securities which pay a fixed rate of interest. Government bonds (gilts) are the best known example. Compared to shares, fixed income securities have the attraction of certainty - you know what income you will get in advance - and they are less risky than shares. But the upside is not as good, and you will never get the really high returns with a bond that you might get with a share that does well.


Equity - Definition

The amount which shareholders own in a publicly quoted company. Equity is the risk-bearing part of the company's capital and contrasts with debt capital which is usually secured in some way and which has priority over shareholders if the company becomes insolvent and its assets are distributed.

For most companies there are two types of equity: ordinary shares, which have voting rights, and preference shares which do not. Owners of preference shares rank ahead of ordinary shareholders in a liquidation.
